I Charley Fulmcr and Murtin were the scoring luminaries in the - ranks of the invaders, the former, i a ,-lippery resourceful forward, « arching a trio of baskets, while Mai tin landed three doubles. < During the first half, the result ! promised victory for the home : '• team. The visitors were whirled oil their feet, with a tally of 21- i' 15 against the soldiers. < Eddie Miller featured again as 1 the "champ" scorer of the local ' team, and was largely responsible fot the lead at half time. Miller ' | registered five shots at the liasket, ' ' while Mangold came a good second with a fine brand of passing: ami a duo from the court. Miller played a stellar game i throughout; in fact, the local five ' never displayed a finer brand of 1 all around ball.

When finally secured, he J 9 claimed he had given the greater portion of the money to a woman j for safe keeping in the city of;1 1 York. #( i The man also claimed he had : 1 purchased a lot of furniture with ' f the money, but none appears to lie \ 1 available, and, nothing else of i] value was recovered. - Judge Eldredge in passing sencommitted the prisoner for'1 the term aforementioned, giving 1 the man ample time to repent the of his ways. Wilson confessed to the burglary I explaining how he had entered the I store and opened the safe. f » After the burglary, the man ; ii stated lie fled to North Carolina. A .'From there he came to Asbury A jPark, fleeing again to New Haven, ' , i Conn., where he was apprehended f after several months' search. ' Atorney George R.
